TROOPERS is a long-running, deliberately small technical security conference in Heidelberg with a strong reputation for deep network, hardware and protocol security work rather than vendor content. It is known for its atmosphere and for attracting practitioners who present research they do not take to the larger commercial conferences.
TROOPERS27 runs June 21 to 25, 2027. The structure matters for booking: trainings run June 21 to 22 and the conference itself June 23 to 25, so a training-plus-conference trip is five days while the conference alone is three. The venue for 2027 has not been announced yet.
Venue info not available.
